[theqoo] ‘PERFECT CROWN”S STORY TOUR, SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE IN WANJU COUNTY (FT. BYUN WOOSEOK’S APOLOGY, DISNEY+)

They promoted it on Instagram Stories two hours prior without any notice of the cancellation

1. This is a total public nuisance. The local government probably provided tax subsidies thinking it would be good publicity, spit that money back out!

2. I just pity the local government

3. We’re telling you to scrap the whole drama that is distorting history…; Local governments will respond if you file a complaint, so please do it. They probably planned this knowing that the drama hit daebak but they should just scrap it and sue the drama production company for damages

4. Why do they not care about the public’s opinion?????

5. I just feel bad for the local government and the staffs

6. Let’s start a petition. Is this some kind of “Experience Tour of a Vassal State of South Korea”?

7. I know they prepared a lot, who’d knew that the drama would end like this?

8. Please read the room

9. Stop making a fuss

10. I guess an apology is powerful. They think that everything disappeared because they apologized

[theqoo] BYUN WOOSEOK’S APOLOGY OVER ‘PERFECT CROWN’

Hello, this is actor Byun Wooseok.

Over the weekend, I was filled with anxiety and concern that my words might cause further harm. I am writing this with a heavy heart to those who felt discomfort and concern due to the production.

During the filming and acting process, I did not sufficiently consider the historical context and meaning embedded in the work, nor how it might be received by viewers. Through your feedback, I have reflected deeply and realized once again that, as an actor, I must approach not only my performance but also the message and context of the work with a greater sense of responsibility.

I offer my sincere apologies.

I would like to once again express my gratitude to everyone who has supported ‘Perfect Crown’ and Prince Lee An, and offered me advice. I pledge to approach my work with greater care and depth as an actor moving forward. I am truly sorry.

Sincerely,

Byun Wooseok”
